Chapter 148 One life for two lives, profit!
"Okay, I promise you!" Rico agreed after a moment of silence.
Mesut was very happy, got up with a smile, and led the two of them to the garrison's station.
After entering here, Hannis first saw the people who were wearing only underwear, exposing most of their bodies to the hot sun but still training hard, and said in surprise: "Will there be no problems with this training method?"
Fatigue is one thing, but the bigger hidden danger is the high possibility of sunburn and heat stroke.
Both of these symptoms are considered serious illnesses in a kingdom with low technological level.
But Mesut was very indifferent to this, "No, Chen Shi gave me medicine that can effectively prevent over-training injuries. To be honest, sometimes I really can't imagine that a giant has such wisdom!"
"Chen Shi. Is that the name of that wise giant?" Rico asked curiously.
In fact, she already had the answer in her mind during the conversation. She was curious as to why these two words had strange pronunciations.
"Yes," Mesut responded to her, "after the name of Hope City was decided, he also told us his name.
You guys will stay here and help me train them.
Tomorrow at noon, we will participate in the operation to rescue other people. At that time, as a garrison, we can follow Chen Shi and observe him to our heart's content."
After saying that, the old man turned around without saying a word and left directly.
After he had completely walked away from the station, the old man's serious expression suddenly changed. He rubbed his hands with joy and walked in one direction. At the same time, he murmured: "Finally, I have someone to replace me, otherwise I will be exhausted!"
Xiaoran, I’m coming~~Hehehehe!”
The old man who has been serving the kingdom all his life finally has the first spring of his life after coming to Hope City, a city with a very high aging population, to take power.
Before, after dealing with various miscellaneous matters every day, he had to teach the people he chose. Now that Rico and Hannis are taking over, he can spare more time to spend time with his old sweetheart!
The next day, a team of nearly 3,000 people was fully equipped.
Although there was no sophisticated equipment, no balanced food, and even only one set of clothes, everyone was extremely excited.
Because they know that what they do is to save their compatriots!
Infected by this emotion, Hannis was also very excited and shouted loudly in his speech before the action.
"Can you calm down and forget why we are here?" Rico whispered.
Being stopped, Hannis was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said bitterly: "Sorry, I couldn't control myself."
Rico rolled her eyes and didn't say anything else. Wasn't she suppressing the restlessness in her heart?
After Mesut left yesterday, when she was making training adjustments to the garrison members, one of them said this: "You can practice however you want, and we will persevere! Every day, thousands of compatriots are waiting for us to save them.
For the sake of our compatriots and for the sake of the Guardian, what will happen even if we sacrifice ourselves!?"
These words were so similar to when she first joined the training corps.
So what if I sacrifice myself for the sake of humanity!?
But now, the person who said this is standing on the opposite side of her.
It was the decisions made by the nobles with her as the cornerstone that pushed these people to this situation!
My rock-solid heart began to loosen at this moment.
Bang-bang-bang-!!
As the earth trembled, Chen Shi appeared in front of everyone.
"Long live the Guardian!!!" the people shouted.
Chen Shi showed a hint of helplessness on his face, and waved his hand: "Don't worry, just pack up and leave. I have to come back later to go hunting!"
If the system mission hadn't been there, he would have really wanted to turn around and run away!
Being urged to move by various things every day made him feel like he was back in the college entrance examination period, exhausted!
Then he took the lead and headed towards the wall, easily using weapons to deal with the unsullied giants that were attracted to him.
When he arrived near the urn city, he said: "You are divided into three groups and move in the direction of the three urn cities. I will try my best to help you deal with the giants blocking the road. There will definitely be casualties among them. Are you confident?"
People: “Yes!!!”
"If you spread out like this, you won't be able to encounter other giants on the way!" Rico finally couldn't help it and said loudly.
No matter how smart Chen Shi is, no matter how good he is at using weapons, the distance between the three urn cities cannot be bridged by an individual. She doesn't want to see these people die in vain.
"I will do my best," Chen Shi said, looking at the silver-haired woman. "I also said that casualties are inevitable. What I can guarantee is that there will be three thousand people coming and five thousand or more going back.
!”
"You want to trade one life for two lives." Rico shook his head and said in confusion.
A young man belonging to the garrison pulled her sleeve and said: "Sister Rico, all of us who participated in the operation have already known the consequences. And our lives were also exchanged for the lives of other seniors before.
It’s back! So as long as you can exchange one for two, it’s a profit!”
As if they all agreed with the young man's statement, the people nodded in succession.
"You guys." Rico was shocked.
The people inside the wall were destined to be exploited by the upper classes such as the nobles and the gendarmerie from birth, and no one had ever resisted in the past hundred years.
Rather than saying that I don’t dare, it’s better to say that I am numb.
I'm used to being oppressed, used to being treated like a beast.
Even Levi, now the famous captain of the Survey Corps, was just a street gangster within the wall before.
If Erwin hadn't stood up to everyone's objections, he might have been surrounded and killed by the military police because he provoked a certain noble.
Even so, after possessing strength and power, Levi still couldn't say no when faced with the orders and oppression of the nobles.
That obedience is buried in the deepest part of my memory!
When I learned about the youth's concept that "our lives were bought by our predecessors with their lives, so we must also trade our own lives for the lives of others," the shock and surprise were unprecedented!
"Miss Rico," Hannis said blankly as he came to the side, "I have an inexplicable emotion in my heart that I can't name. But this emotion urges me to work with these guys to save more lives!"
The team's emotions reached their peak. Chen Shi stopped talking and directly ordered the action to begin.
Then he also set out to clean up the surrounding giants, and then spread them to both sides.
By the time the sun went down, the team of 3,000 people had grown to nearly 7,000 people.
The young man from the defense team who spoke in front of Rico was bitten in two by the giant who gathered again because Chen Shi left.
Before he died, he looked at the growing team and showed a satisfied smile.
Chapter completed!
